Steel Mills Use Manganese: The most important use of manganese is in the manufacturing of steel. Manganese gives the steel strength and hardness. Without manganese, the steel used to make armor plate, crusher jaws, and impact tools would not be as durable. Image Â© iStockphoto / Huyangshu.
Manganese is one of the most abundant metals in soils, where it occurs as oxides and hydroxides, and it cycles through its various oxidation states. Manganese occurs principally as pyrolusite (MnO 2), and to a lesser extent as rhodochrosite (MnCO 3). More than 25 million tonnes are mined every year, representing 5 million tons of the metal, and reserves are estimated to exeed 3 billion tonnes of the metal.
